Personal Description:

I have been a personal tutor for 8 years and have been tutoring groups for about 20 years. As well as having a biology degree, I also have a keen interest in all science subjects, and try to pass on my enthusiasm to my students.
When I'm not teaching I enjoy photography, playing guitar and hill-walking.

Tutoring Experience:

I have about 20 years of tutoring experience. I began tutoring in adult education for Leeds University and for the last 8 years I've been a personal tutor for both GCSE and A-level students.
In 2009 I gained the level 3 PTLLS teaching qualification.

Tutoring Approach:

I am very enthusiastic about teaching biology and I genuinely believe that science should be interesting (and definitely not scary), and that understanding key principles makes the detailed stuff so much easier.
I tailor each session to the individual student's needs, spending any time necessary on topics that may be causing difficulties, and use a very patient approach to improve subject knowledge, exam technique as well as improving the student's confidence.

PaulFrom Justine (5/5): (A-Level Biology)Hi Paul apologies for never getting round to doing this earlier however given Rory's results I felt especially guilty for my appalling lack of prioritisation! so I had to finally fill this in . Many thanks for your support to Rory - given an anticipated C grade has turned into a stunning A grade I can only pass on my gratitude for your work in building up his confidence and capability. He isn't going to carry it on to A2 level but to have an A at AS is really brilliant.

Reply from Paul: Hi Justine - Many thanks for the feedback. Please pass on my congratulations to Rory - his hard work earned him the result he wanted. I hope he continues to do well throughout his A2 subjects.
Regards - Paul

PaulFrom Lisa (5/5): (A-Level Biology)Paul provided excellent help, was patient and above else was willing to tailor his sessions to what my daughter required the most attention with. She achieved the highest possible grade (Level 7 in the International Baccalaureate Diploma) and we cannot thank Paul enough!
